What prevents Brave from, instead of requiring these BAT tokens to show advertising on their network, just deciding to charge $ instead? If/when they do that won't it make these tokens worthless?
Nothing that I'm aware of, but nothing stops their users from using regular Chrome if the payments dry up.
There is also scope for click/view fraud also
Even if the original token pool is a fixed size, they could choose to issue another token pool later, so different token types could have different values
Other parties could use the same token scheme for their advertising and not pass anything on to their users

The whole area is intriguing
